Very Good in a Very Good dust jacket. Octavo; xiv, 370 pp. Bound in original publisher's cloth with spine lettered in silver/gilt. Illustrated with decorations and woodcut-style chapter headpieces by John O'Hara Cosgrave II. A solid, square, and tight volume showing mild shelfwear to the extremities, gentle softening to spine ends, and clean boards. Interior pages are clean, bright, and free of owner markings, highlighting, or bookplates. The original pictorial dust jacket retains bold, striking red-and-black contrast, showing moderate edge rubbing, minor creasing, and small chips at the spine tips and corners, with faint surface rubbing to the white rear panel featuring the author portrait by John D. MacDonald. In Dark Trees to the Wind, celebrated historian and folklorist Carl Carmer continues his vivid exploration of Upstate New York history, folklore, and regional character. Weaving together local legends, historical anecdotes, supernatural yarns, and character sketches across the Genesee Valley, the Adirondacks, and the Mohawk country, Carmer documents the idiosyncratic cultural heritage, religious revivals, and pioneer memory that defined rural New York State.…
